Good question...tickets for any Broadway show are ridiculous...should they regulate play prices?

Lots of things are expensive, and if you don't make enough money, you aren't "entitled" to them...want a nicer car, earn more money, want a bigger house, earn more money!

 

Old people dont die if they cant afford a new house, new car or a broadway play. Smdh

So you want to "cut into the profits"?  When times are hard, will you be willing to pony up and pay $ to the companies when they are losing money?  Your crowd has complained and moaned about the oil industry profits for a long time.  May I remind you that the huge settlement paid out by British Petroleum was done so out of those horrible profits?  If you had your way, they wouldnt have made as much and could not have taken responsibility for the damage.  Then, we could have had another government bailout, at which time, you would complain about that.  Also, please give me a link that substantiates your 600% profit claim or did you also get that one from the guys at work?  I guess you are STILL unable to grasp the fact that when the government gets involved in business, costs go up and efficiency goes down.  Why can't you understand that?

Hugo Chavez wanted to cut into profits of those evil companies...how did that one work out.

Dems are for some reason, upset with profits...they feel a company's main purpose is to supply minimum wage jobs.

    • What news station do you watch?…..never mind.    What age are the children you take care of. Refugees from where? Are they in a hospital? Now children compared to criminals…..geeeez. The mayor of Denver and a few governors, including Newsom, have said they will not turn over incarcerated criminals to ICE. This is a felony. They are harboring criminals and fugitives. Gee, I’m so glad you want criminals protected. Anyone who crossed illegally into our country is a criminal. Happy Holidays to you and yours.
    • Sorry sir on my miss count. I was in hurry
    • Are they offering refuge to criminals? Or is it a Trump talking point? Refugees are people who leave their country due to unwarranted prosecution. I actually take care of 2 refugee kids who have complex medical needs   No, refugees are not criminals, and the assumption that they are more likely to be criminals than the general population is incorrect:                                                                                          Research shows immigrants commit crimes at lower rates Immigrants in the United States commit crimes at lower rates than the U.S.-born population, including unauthorized immigrants. This is true across immigrant groups.                  Immigration doesn't raise crime rates Immigrants don't raise crime rates in the communities where they settle. In fact, some studies suggest that immigration can lower crime rates, especially violent crime.                  Anti-immigration politicians have spread a myth Anti-immigration politicians have repeatedly tried to link immigrants to crime, but research shows this is a myth.                  Refugees don't cause crime in Turkey A study found that refugees don't have a causal effect on crime rates in Turkey. In fact, the study found that refugees may have a negative effect on crime rates per capita. 
    • I think it's actually the first time ever to get past the second round. Some older folks might try to tell you about Scott High but I wasn't here when that school was around 😆
    • Smith is 78-31 overall and 18-8 in the playoffs. His first three years he went 23-15 overall and 6-3 in playoffs. His Silsbee teams are averaging making 3rd round every year in his 9 years as head coach.
